This is a program that allows the user to select an item from a combo box and display its image in an image box. The program is suitable to create an education game for the children. In this example, I create a simple astronomical program to allow the user to view all the nine planets of our solar system. In this program, I insert an a combo box and an image box. Planets are added to the combo box using the AddItem method at start up. In order to display the image, I use the Select Case .........End Select statement and the LoadPicture method to load the picture into the image box. You have to modify this program so that it follow the correct path in your computer. You can always change the program to something else like list of animals, list of plants and etc.
